Writing Can Be Murder. August 29, 2007. 8212; jenniferelbaum @ 11:23 am. I once took a personality test that defined me as a squiggle (you know, a curvy line that goes in no particular direction). My secondary personality “trait” was a circle, which basically means I can’t think in a straight line like a triangle, square, rectangle type of person can. Pages 1 and 2 — Story “M”. Pages 3,4&5 — Story “E”. Pages 6 &7 — Story “G”. Page 8 — Back to story E. Page 9 — Back to story G. Do you squiggle too? The An...

Writing Can Be Murder. January 3, 2008. 8212; jenniferelbaum @ 9:09 am. Tess Gerritsen has an interesting post up on her blog about killing off characters http:/ tessgerritsen.com/blog/2007/12/31/kill-the-character/#comments. Personally I probably would have cheered if she HAD killed off Jane Rizzoli, but that’s me). So in this version, the character doesn’t die. DH is happy. And I think I am too, BUT I don’t think I would have been unhappy if I had killed the character off. Leave a Comment ».

Writing Can Be Murder. January 8, 2008. Writing for the audience. 8212; jenniferelbaum @ 4:17 pm. The other day I was doing some nonfiction writing (yes, I know, you were under the impression that I spend ALL my time torturing and killing people). I was trying to rewrite a statement from a nationally known organization about one service some of their members provide for the general public. So my message today, for everyone, regardless of what you write, is “KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE! Leave a Comment ».

Writing Can Be Murder. January 7, 2008. 8212; jenniferelbaum @ 11:24 am. As the saying goes, “opposites attract”. DH and I are opposites.

Writing Can Be Murder. June 29, 2007. Building the 6 Million Dollar Book. 8212; jenniferelbaum @ 8:27 am. Remember the beginning of the old Six Million Dollar Man tv show? There was a voiceover that said something like, “We can make him faster, stronger, better.”. Every single time I think about my WIP, I’m trying to make the plot move faster, the characterization stronger, the emotional impact better. It’s still on the operating table…. June 28, 2007. Sharing a Work In Progress. June 26, 2007. Today I O...
